Oh really? Call it gel or call it juice or call it what it really is, "gooey stuff". So long as it comes from the plant, it is fine. And yes, the product called "juice" which is for human consumption, is also good for them. But, why would we try to soak their outsides with expensive juice when what comes straight from the plant is cheaper and works much better as a topical. The juice can be used as a dietary supplement. Uh, "Randy", in case you need clarification, topical means applied to the outside. If no one talks about it, I wonder why so many well recognized names in parrot related information seem to agree with me? And by the way "Randy", it's still not all that entertaining how you will make posts using different names, talking back and forth to yourself, constantly trying to stir up strife. Have you no life?
